The New Yorker's A to Z of NY Food: U is for Urban Farming

U IS FOR URBAN FARMING! From a 20,000+ square feet rooftop greenhouse in Gowanus to a basil-filled window box in Bay Ridge, every bit of green grown in this city is good. Chefs are getting in on the action too and growing what they can in their restaurants’ backyards. @musketmatt of Michelin-starred @musketroom exercises his green thumb behind his Nolita-located restaurant where he grows a variety of herbs and vegetables from fennel to peppers. He doesn’t grow his own quail but it’s one of the best I’ve ever had. #garden #newyork #food Share your U Food/Drink photo with #TNYeats so my cat can find it. Photo: @jamespomerantz
